I started writing this just after my last update but I got too tired to finish any more because it was night time when I felt the erg to write but when I woke up in the morning I couldn't really seem to get it right. I got really stuck though at the end which is what took me so long to post this but I just decided to leave it for the next chapter in the end. I've been having a little brain melt down from the stress of having to get my portfolio together so I can't really write right now so I'll probably look over this again later.

Just Like Sesshoumaru

Reboot

* * *

Kagome had started to gain consciousness when she realized she didn't want to. She cuddled further into the soft fur surrounding her only thinking one thought. 'So warm and comfy.'

She stilled though when she felt something tighten around her waste. 'What was that?' Kagome knew for a fact that Fluffy wasn't capable of that movement. She cracked her eyes open in confusion though they seemed to refuse and burned with disuse.

Her sleep muddled brain wasn't able to process what she was observing at the moment for a little bit. There was a hand on her waist with claws and demon markings.

She was a little slow in the morning before it hit her like a bolt of lightning.

There was no mistaking who's hand this was. Somehow during the night Sesshoumaru had come to cuddle her. She tried to slip away but his arm just tightened around her harder like it didn't want her to leave.

Kagome tried to stay calm thinking that Sesshoumaru didn't know what he was doing and it was just an after effect of the sludge.

She turned her head around expecting to see the demon lords eyes closed and him dead asleep but instead she was met with the red eye's of one very alert inner beast.

When the sludge had knocked Sesshoumaru out his brain shut down so while he was unconscious it had to reboot before he could wake up again. In the process it managed to knock down all the walls the demon lord had put up to keep his beast in check. Leaving it free reign of his body.

Kagome was a little shocked that instead of trying to kill her the beast was actually purring happily while holding her close. Though every time she tried to get up it would growl at her in displeasure.

As Kagome stilled in her attempt at escape she had to remind herself to stay calm. Panicking is never a good idea around a predator. Especially if you run.

She had to deal with Inuyasha's beast before so Sesshoumaru's couldn't be that different, right? She hoped if she could get through his beast to Sesshoumaru that maybe he could hear her.

"Sesshoumaru. It's me Kagome."

She knew when his red eyes focused on her that she had gained his attention. She could swear she saw a flash of gold go across his eyes in recognition.

Before she knew it she was sprawled out on the dewy grass watching the demon lord walking away. She could see that his eyes were flashing as he turned his head from side to side between red and gold almost like he was having a fight with himself.

It reminded her of those actors who pretended to be two different characters just by turning their bodies in another direction.

Fluffy was woken by the loud gasp the Miko gave off. He really wasn't expecting this outcome to his plan. He thought that they'd wake up together and be embarrassed. But noooo, Sesshoumaru had to go all feral ruining the environment he set for them.

He wasn't an evil genius for nothing though.

Maybe he could make it work to his advantage Fluffy thought as he followed after the demon lord. The inner demon was suppose to be their instincts and something told him that Sesshoumaru's beast wanted the same thing to happen as he did.

No matter how much the demon lord denied his feelings his beast was an open book to his every emotion. All you had to do was ask.

***

Sesshoumaru's eye's flashed red meaning his beast was back in control.

''The Miko smells good.''

'' Ye- I'm not agreeing with you.''

'' Can we keep her?''

'' What have I told you before. You can't just claim anything you want because they smell good. That's one of the reasons I had to lock you up in the first place.'' They flashed gold as Sesshoumaru fought back.

''Well someone has to try and get us a mate.''

***

Kagome sighed as she watched Sesshoumaru start to talk to his beast in inu while sending glances back in her direction. 'Not this again.' She couldn't understand a word of it and the curiosity was killing her.

As soon as the demon lord was back to normal she was going to force him to teach Inuyasha how to speak inu. Kagome was thrown from her thoughts of frustration when she heard her name sleepily called. She turned her head.

"Shippo you're finally awake."

"Yeh, I see what you were talking about before now. What's going on?" Shippo asked as he climbed into Kagome's lap as he observed the demon lords weird behavior.

"I'm not even sure myself. Is Inuyasha awake now?" Kagome asked not wanting to risk missing anything in Sesshoumaru's fight with his inner beast to observe the hanyou.

"I think that the sludge's effect have worn off but he just chose to stay asleep." Kagome didn't know what Shippo meant for a sec until she actually looked over. When Inuyasha was under the effect of the demon slaying sludge he was just completely still but now he was snoring away with his but in the air and a big grin on his face.

Kagome smirked as she got an evil idea worthy of Fluffy.

"Shippo stay here." Kagome took her chance to slip away when the demon lord and his beast were distracted when Fluffy talked to then. She stood up and placed the fox kit on the ground who was so concentrated on the argument he didn't notice.

"Uh huh." He just nodded subconsciously with eyes wide in awe.

"Come get me if anything happens." Kagome yelled back as she disappeared through the bushes.

***

''Go back inside!'' Sesshoumaru demanded.

'' No!'' His beast yelled back defiantly.

As he walked up Fluffy swore it looked like if it was possible Sesshoumaru and his beast would've been glaring at each other. He could imagine them both as two different beings as their personalities were so different.

*Excuse me?* Fluffy's ears immediately laid flat against his head.

He actually felt like shuffling his feet or running away in fear when they turned their combined glare on him when he disturbed their unfriendly banter. It was only partly the glare and the other part was Sesshoumaru's eyes were flashing between red and gold while doing it.

''What do you want Fluffy.'' The eyes stopped flashing for a second and stayed on gold so that you knew it was Sesshoumaru talking.

'' Yeh, what do you want you in-superior dog.'' The eyes flashed back to red and narrowed in annoyance. Even though Fluffy was just a dog Sesshoumaru's beast was just a bigger dog who considered him a minor threat to be the alpha of the pack as he was also a male.

'How come their slight dislike of me is the only thing they can agree on with out breaking into an argument'. Fluffy thought as he found it hard to come up with a response when he felt like they were ganging up on him.

Fluffy shook his head to gain back his confidence before speaking.

* Well beast, I couldn't help but over hear how much you like the Miko.* Fluffy could see that he'd gained the beasts full attention as his eyes stayed red but he wasn't glaring at him anymore.

As Sesshoumaru was trapped inside his head now all he could think was 'Oh no.' He now knew what Fluffy was trying to do and he tried to force his way back out before it was too late.

*I've talked to Sesshoumaru on this matter before but he wouldn't listen to me when I told him to mate her before she was taken by somebody else. What do you think?* Fluffy tried to act innocent like he didn't know what he was suggesting.

''I want her as our mate.'' The beast looked back to check up on his Miko only to find her gone and a fox kit sitting in her place. Sesshoumaru managed to regain full control of his body in the beasts confusion.

''I'm back to normal.'' Sesshoumaru said out loud to himself while moving his hand in a threatening way releasing his poison at the same time.

Fluffy was very sad to see this and a little frightened at the glare sent in his direction. He had started to like the beast side better than the normal demon lord.

'No fair! You tricked me.' Sesshoumaru cold hear his beast shouting at him inside his head.

'How about if you promise to go back in your cage I'll ask the Miko to be my mate.' Even though Sesshoumaru and his beast shared the same body they didn't share the same mind. He was able to hide what he was really thinking.

'Ok.' His beast replied in excitement before disappearing completely from his head.

Sesshoumaru waited a second to make sure he was actually gone before saying out loud "Sucker." He then around and strode back to where he was sure he had dumped the Miko who had now seemed to have disappeared and been replaced by her fox kit.

"Have you seen…" Before Sesshoumaru could finish asking where the Miko went she came stumbling into the clearing carrying a heavy bucket of water. "…Where have you been and what are you doing?" Sesshoumaru asked confused.

"Oh your back to normal I see." Kagome stated before carrying on and pouring the bucket of cold water over his half-brother's head like it was how she would normally wake him up.

Inuyasha immediately snapped awake. "What the Hell!" By the time Inuyasha had finished sputtering Kagome had walked over to the demon lord and placed the bucket beside the demon lord.

Sesshoumaru was too busy enjoying his brother's suffering to realized he'd just been framed until he was snapped out of his haze when his half brother tried to jump him.

"I'm going to kill you." Inuyasha had searched for the culprit and found his brother the answer.

"What are you talking about?" Of course Sesshoumaru managed to dodge Inuyasha even when he wasn't paying attention.

"You just poured water on me!" It did seem a little immature for his brothers taste but Inuyasha wasn't in the right frame of mind to notice.

"That wasn't me! it was the Miko." Sesshoumaru tried to defend his honor while pointing his finger. Inuyasha's head snapped to look at Kagome.

Kagome froze when she'd been caught in her escape and put on the best innocent look she could manage when she really wasn't that innocent. She wasn't as good at it as Fluffy was apparently. She knew she must've over done it when Inuyasha turned his anger on her.

"Why the hell did you do that?! If you wanted me to wake up so bad a simple shake of the shoulder or even yelling the sit command would've been better than this. Look at me I'm soaking wet!" Inuyasha knew Kagome very well and could tell when she was lying even though she didn't do it very often. She got shifty eyes.

Kagome knew the gig was up. "Well you see when you were all still unconscious I was thinking of ways to wake you guys up. I was little sad I didn't get to use any of them. I always wanted to wake someone up by throwing a bucket of water on them you know…"

She peaked at Inuyasha through her bangs but could see that he still wasn't happy with her.

"Will you forgive me if I make you some ramen?"

He'd missed dinner on account of the demon slaying sludge and now his stomach felt like it was eating it's self. He tried to stand his ground but it didn't last long.

"Ok." Inuyasha stopped pouting and instantly forgave her.
